精东AV听is test-optional for fall 2025 applicants.听 听
What does test-optional mean at JCU?
精东AV practices no-harm, test-optional admission. This means that submitting SAT or ACT scores is not required for admission. Test scores, if submitted, are one of many factors we consider when making admission decisions. Test scores can strengthen an application, and our 鈥渘o harm鈥 policy means that if you choose to submit test scores that do not strengthen your application, the test scores are simply ignored. Any test scores submitted and used for admission are superscored. If you choose to apply test-optional, we will place additional weight on the rigor of your high school curriculum and course grades, particularly in English and math courses.

We will only be able to consider SAT and ACT scores for tests taken through December 2024.

If I don't submit a test score, how will my application be reviewed?

Because JCU considers applicants holistically, the review process for students submitting scores and those not submitting scores will be very similar.听
